Vegan Snowball Cookies

“The classic snowball cookie gets a vegan makeover in a really delicious way! These melt in your mouth vegan cookies are buttery, and dusted with sugar. This is the easiest vegan cookie recipe you've ever made!” Thanks to “The Edgy Veg” for the recipe!

Ingredients

½ cup vegan butter, cold
¼ cup powdered sugar + ½ cup extra to roll/coat cookies
1 tsp vanilla extract
Pinch salt
1 cup unbleached organic all purpose white flour
½ cup finely chopped walnuts or almonds

Directions

Preheat the oven to 325F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a stand mixer, or medium bowl with a hand mixer or spoon, cream together vegan butter, ¼ cup powdered sugar, vanilla and salt.

In a separate large bowl, combine flour and nuts of choice.

Gradually add flour mixture to butter mixture; beating after each addition. Mix until until the mixture comes together like a dough.

Shape into balls and place on a cookie sheet 1 inch apart. Bake for 15 minutes until very lightly browned. Do not over bake.

Meanwhile prepare a bowl with ½ cup powdered sugar.

Remove cookies from baking sheet and place on a wire cooking rack to cool for 2-5 mins or until cool enough to handle. Gently roll warm cookies in powdered sugar and place back onto the wire rack to cool completely.

Once cooled, roll cookies in powdered sugar a second time.

Store cookies in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
